Charity
Compassion in World Farming campaign to end cruel factory farming. These systems impose mindless suffering on billions of farm animals reared for food around the world. Farm animal welfare and wellbeing is at the heart of all we do. Our passion for our work is supported by hard evidence and fact. These areas underpin all our campaigns and make us the leading experts in our field.

Jane Mackay's fundraising page
Thanks very much for visiting my page. My challenge is to live without a fridge or freezer for the next six months. The big switch-off took place on 1 January, 2012.
Through Virgin Money Giving you can sponsor me in this venture to raise money for Compassion in World Farming. Donations will be quickly processed and passed to this charity. Virgin Money Giving is a not-for-profit organisation and will claim gift aid if you opt for this. Thank you so much for your donation. I really appreciate your support.
